Manchester United outcast Memphis Depay seemed keen to keep a low profile as he got into his £250,000 Rolls Royce after enjoying lunch in Hale on Wednesday

He told French newspaper L'Equipe: “At the beginning of this afternoon I reached an agreement in principle with Manchester United, the finer details still need to be sorted out but at a more expensive base than is currently being circulated.”

Depay's imminent move to Lyon will end an unsuccessful 18 months in English football for the Dutchman.

Manchester United's Memphis Depay

He arrived from PSV Eindhoven in May 2015 for £25million but failed to replicate the impressive form his showed in the Eredivisie.

This season he's made just one start in all competitions under Jose Mourinho.

His last appearance came against Feyenoord in the Europa League on November 24.
